Ah ha!! I knew something had to be going on there. Sweeping a 4 game series no matter how bad the disparity between any two teams, is very hard. Sweeping 5 games when the two teams are both good is very, very hard. I mean Detroit is a good team and have taken the first two from the Red Sox so far in a 4 game series but no way in hell would I take them to won both of the next two. Baseball just isn't a sport like hockey or basketball where one team that towers over another team can sweep out a series. Baseball has a lot of luck involved in it. Some nights a team can hit four frozen ropes and have em hit right at someone. Other nights a texas leaguer can fall in or a ground ball sneak through a hole. In the long run the talent will prevail but in the short run its not real easy for ANY team to sweep another team, especially in a 5 game series.
